Debrett's New Guide to Etiquette and Modern Manners by John Morgan
Steering through such potentially sticky areas as 'netiquette', vegetarianism, modern dress codes, multiple families and international business protocol, 'Debrett's New Guide to Etiquette and Modern Manners' combines the very best of traditional standards of conduct with acceptable modern innovations. Packed with no-nonsense, step-by-step guidelines and advice, it covers everything from basic table manners to precedence at the State Opening of Parliament. Written with clarity and wit, this book celebrates the charm, beauty and fascination of classic good manners and their enduring role in civilised society.
